David Ward delivers a delicious musical gumbo fusing together folk, jazz, blues, theatre, and pure imaginative wit. His music has been labeled a 'rare, bold foray into melodic experimentation' Vancouver Sun. “Think Zappa meets James Brown meets Tom Waits meets Stan Getz meets Marvin Gaye." John P. McLaughlin of The Province.



After releasing his debut solo album in 2006, Never Meant to Know, David spent time touring Western Canada extensively for nearly two years. In the fall of 2007, David traveled to Ghana, West Africa to study traditional drumming, song and dance under the tutelage of the Kusun Ensemble.



February of 2008, David released Unstruck Note with his band Loose Change Trio and producer Adam Fulton (Paul McCartney, Teri Clark). In the fall of the same year, David and his band completed a 25 date cross-Canada tour with great success and support from both CBC Radio 3, 2 and 1 and numerous other radio and television shows across the country and in Europe.



David spent the fall of 2008 – winter of 2009 in Toronto. In his tenure, he held a weekly residency at the historic Cameron House, as well as at Not My Dog and, C’est What? – venues that have been home to world renowned Canadian and international performers including Feist, Wilco and Jeff Buckley.



In the summer of 2009, David embarked on a 20 date, solo Eastern Canada tour and recently, he wrapped a successful Japan tour which included radio spots and a performance on the live worldwide internet broadcast show, The Hippopotamus. His live show is “A perfect example of how musicians are not just there to play music, but to entertain as well." Ron Cheng - ronatron.net independent reviews



David is committed to positive change in the local and global community through various endeavors and initiatives known as CHANGE projects.



This summer David is set to release three self-produced music videos pertaining to and followed by his new album, The Arrival.
